South Korea again asked to delay crypto tax, regulator insists on timeline
- —A petition to delay the tax by 2 years gathered 50,000 signatures
- —The tax rate is 22% on income above 2.5 million won (~$1,856)
- —The tax has been delayed three times since 2022
- —The Finance Ministry says the timeline is unchanged, with details to be announced later
Why it matters: The introduction of the tax could push Korean investors toward offshore platforms and increase pressure on local crypto companies.
